Recently got myself a Sonly Alpha 200 DSLR camera with a 18-70mm lens and took it out for a wee run last night...just wondering if there are any other amateur photographers out there in.

[jay_7]

Pretty good efforts there sir. I've got a few photo's on Flickr (Link in my sig) if you fancy a look at them.

Edit: Forgot to mention my photo's are taken using a Canon EOS 400D with either the standard 18-55mm kit lens that comes with it or the Canon 55-250mm IS lens.

In a Pavolvian way my mind registered 'amatuer' and 'photography' and I instantly clicked on here.....



....what a disappointment!

Have been an amateur photographer of football for years now. Never considered taking photos of things outside a football ground for some reason.







Plenty more on the Lossiemouth FC website - www.lossiemouthfc.co.uk.

Good photo's mate. I particularly like the 'late challenge' 1st one (Ouch! ) and the lardy keeper in the last!

Cheers. Have some more of the keeper...







Need a bit of practice on sunny days I think.

I love pictures taken at the football as everyone has the daftest face on.

Mark Yardley in goals? What the hell is that with the Yellow top on beside Yardley in the goalmouth scramble?

[codfish]

Some cracking stuff above.

Will post some of my more recent stuff later on once I've done some editing

I know, I'm surprised to see Moby playing football in Scotland too. Thought he'd be at a higher level.

The photo of the young STAG with the pin is brilliant

No. Nor the three before it, or the two after it.

In his defence (and looking at the squad, it's his only one) he usually keeps the score down.

Fantastic place to visit if you get the light and don't mind the company of 40,000 pairs of puffin!

I love how the bald guy has stopped to pose for the camera!

Thanks, it was my first time correcting the shutter speed and all other settings, and got a good result, although will head out there latter on in the week hopefully with a tripod to get the rocks more clearler but have the same affect with the water...theres also another few (count20) that did not come out as hoped which need to be redone.

I got myself a Canon Powershot G10 camera a few months ago. I love it, its a cracking wee camera

Fantastic, mate. Although as an ex-keeper myself, I think he did a great job and it's always easy to make the last man look stupid when your defenders are as much use as a chocolate fireguard!

Hats off to the big man - respect!

I think the keeper might post on here. He's an Elgin fan.

Couple of photos taken without leaving the house. First one needs expanded to see it properly

I have some average efforts, sadly none are a patch on some of those already posted. This is partly down to me having a very basic 6 mega-pixle camera which I have had about 4 or 5 years now! I might buy a new (far superior) one or put it on my list to Santa. I really want to get quite good at photography.
